Vasily Grossman is the Tolstoy of the USSR
Martin Amis
A powerful work...It shows us the perplexity of an old man coming home after 30 years in a gulag to find society much changed and is the work of a true visionary.
Daily Telegraph, Christmas round up
As eloquent a memorial to the anonymous little man in the Stalinist state as Dr Zhivago is to the artistic spirit in post-Czarist Russia and The First Circle to the scientific intelligentsia
New York Times
Beautiful and philosophical narrative of lives and lamentation... a thoughtful polemic
Irish Times
Only Dante, in his account of Ugolino and his sons starving to death in a locked tower, has written of death from hunger with equal power
Robert Chandler, London Review of Books
Possibly the greatest chronicler of the second world war
Guardian
Supplies a wealth of information about the social context and Soviet terminology
Christopher Taylor, Guardian
This is a genuinely visionary work of art, and a worthy sequel to Grossman's magnum opus Life and Fate
Chandrahas Choudury, Daily Telegraph
This is a story that needs to be heard
Simon Humphreys, Mail on Sunday
This tremendous book has the power to make you weep at man's inhumanity to man and, at the same time, rejoice that freedom does not die. Thanks to Robert Chandler and his co-translators, Elizabeth Chandler and Anna Aslanyan, the Russian voice positively sings.
Lucy Popescu, Independent
